     Well in one part of the video Buck is looking skyward, and sees a graphic
of what appears to be a comet. I'm thinking it's a comet because it has a tail.
He sees this during the "three times I've seen the shooting shark, lighting up
the sky" lyric. This might just simple be some idea the producer had, and
nothing really pertinent to what a "Shooting Shark" really is, whatever that
might be, but valid for this discussion none the less.
